    Will be doing my squats at the end of the work day: 5pm.

    For lunch I've been doing a lot of sandwiches. PB&J or tuna, mostly. Easy on the budget! Today I was not in the mood for sandwiches, so picked up some blackened chicken breast, grilled asparagus with blue cheese crumbles, and threw together a salad from their salad bar. All items easy enough to weigh/log with a decent level of accuracy.

    Dinner is probably taquitos and baked broccoli. My Tue/Thur is a bit insane. Leave work at 5pm, run errands and/or grocery shop. Then pick up eldest after his last class finishes at 6:40, then off to the high school to pick up middle child from band practice at 7:15. If I'm lucky, we're home by 7:45 so dinners must be fast and easy.

    I've been baking a lot of veggies lately. Broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini all come out well. Toss w/ a little olive oil and parmesan cheese and any seasonings you like. Bake for 10-15 minutes.

    20 squats done. I'm really surprised how much my legs hurt from yesterdays 15! Looking forward to that burn though.

    For dinner I'm probably going to either have a skinless chicken breast with some corn and salad or maybe a lettuce wrapped burger with salad, depending on what my boyfriend wants to do.

    Watched part of the 10 squat video. Tried a few. Plies are not bad for me - maybe better than basic? Do have some range of motion issues sometimes in my knees, have to be really warmed up.

    Did 20x the triple dip. OH MY. Do not save this one for day 30! 20 was killer.

    Aw man! squats are really hard on the knees! you don't have to do the squats in the videos those were just suggestions! you can simply do a basic squat or maybe a wall squat would be a good choice!

    Oh man were those 20 squats killer. My legs are so sore from all of yesterday's activities but I pushed on. For dinner I'm going to have chicken (not sure how I want to cook it yet... Need some yummy healthy chicken recipes) and then a sweet potato and some asparagus .

    Hi. I did 10 this morning, and 10 this evening after work. Dinner will be (i eat a ketogenic diet so don't freak out...lol)...85/15 grassfed burger patty cooked in coconut oil, 2oz sautéed white mushrooms, creamed with 2oz full fat cream cheese, 2 hard boiled eggs with sour cream. Still debating on dessert. either mascarpone with coco and a little stevia or SF jello with HWC. either way i'll be happy :)

    I'm so proud of you guys!!!! Amazing work!! As the number of squats increase it my be a good idea to break them up. some in the morning and some at night! Such yummy healthy dinners i'm also seeing! Remember weight loss begins in the kitchen! if your working you *kitten* off and not properly fueling you body you wont get the results you want!

    *Side note for skinless chicken breast i always slice them in half, pound them thin (for tenderness) add some adobo seasoning along with ms.dash salt free garlic and herb seasoning, with a bit of parsley on top! Pop them in the oven for 25 minutes on 405 perfect chicken every time!

    I like that I can feel its 'working'. I don't go as low as my 12 year old daughter. (She is a show off and likes to tease me.) SO I figure doing something a little more challenging than basic will help make up for it.

  • Just did another 45 minutes on the elliptical followed by 20 basic squats. I realllllly sat into these ones and my legs are killing me, haha.

    My dinner is baked chicken thighs and a few unknown sides. I'm going to have to dig into my fridge and pantry and see what's available. :)

    Oh! and for dinner last night I had a good old fashioned sloppy joe! On a light bun of course ;)
  • Sorry for checking in a day late. I did my squats but was on my phone and cant get to the groups. I had a bad day foodwise. My dinner was four ounces of pork chops, half a cup of instant mashed potatoes, and two homemade zucchini pancakes.
